Profiling Morgawr, The Sea Serpent

Here's how it begins...

In August 2010, Elizabeth Randall (an English author,
good friend, and seeker of all-things weird) said that according to a
sensational article that appeared in the pages of the British Daily Mail newspaper that same month, “…a picture has been circulating on the Internet purporting to show a sea monster
that, so far seems to have eluded identification. It was seen off
Saltern Cove, Devon, U.K., and has been dubbed by many as a ‘new
Nessie.’ The image appears to show a greenish-brown, long-necked
‘something,’ with a reptilian-like head, that was trailing a shoal of
fish just 30 yards offshore. According to reports the fish beached
themselves just a few seconds later.”

Elizabeth continued: “The photo was sent to the Marine Conservation
Society, who have still to decide exactly what it is. Although theories
range from a sea serpent to a salt water crocodile. The lady who took
the photograph at first thought that it might be a turtle but the Marine
Conservation Society (MCS) says that not only do turtles not chase
fish, but the description doesn’t fit.”
